Finally catching up on writing Yelp reviews, and this one is long overdue…read more Silveira Law has successfully represented me a total of 4 times in the last year and a half. All moving violations throughout Alameda County. All dismissed either due to officer not present or because Atty. Silveira is a master at what he does. On one particular case, I sat in the courtroom and watched Mike fight on my behalf remotely on Zoom. The officer had a grudge against me and showed up to court nearly 2 years after he issued the citation (atypical). Mike's cross-examination techniques are so effective--within minutes, my case was dismissed and the officer literally stormed out of the court room in anger and glared at me on his way out. If I wasn't required to wear a face mask in the court room, I would have been picking up my jaw from the floor. I've sat through nearly all of my court cases and watched how other lawyers represent their clients. Mike actually FIGHTS on your behalf, most people hire an attorney who PLEADS OUT and never gets to a stage where the officer is cross-examined. Respect law enforcement, but also hold them accountable. Never put yourself in the court room without proper representation. Long story short: read a few more reviews--they're 5 Stars for a reason, then hire Silveira Law. Response times can be slow because the firm is busy, so plan accordingly. You'll interact mainly with his paralegals by emailing copies of your citation/license, then hear nothing until your case is dismissed. Showing up to court may or may not be required, but if you do show up, you might have the pleasure of watching Mike serve a masterclass in the court room. Trust the process, enjoy the results. Thank you Mike!

I cannot recommend Geller Law highly enough!…read more I reached out to Mr. Geller after having a very discouraging experience with a previous attorney who was unresponsive, dismissive, and made me feel like a criminal rather than a full time working professional. I was already under a lot of stress, and that lack of communication made things significantly worse. From the moment I contacted Geller Law, the experience was completely different. Lauryn Bradley, the paralegal, spoke with me right away when I was panicking and took the time to listen, explain the process, and reassure me. She immediately scheduled a consultation with Mr. Geller, and both of them were incredibly accommodating and calm throughout the entire process. Mr. Geller clearly explained my situation, set realistic expectations, and most importantly gave me peace of mind. He and Lauryn handled every aspect of my case with professionalism and care, allowing me to continue focusing on my work without constantly worrying about legal details. They were very clear about what was needed from me, and whenever they requested something, communication was prompt and straightforward. Another thing that truly mattered to me was that Mr. Geller personally showed up to every court appearance. I was never left to attend court alone or unsure of what to do. Having him present each time made a stressful situation far more manageable and reinforced my confidence that my case was being taken seriously. What truly sets this firm apart is responsiveness. Emails and questions were answered quickly and thoroughly, which made an enormous difference during a stressful time. I always felt informed, respected, and supported. I feel extremely fortunate to have found Geller Law. If you are looking for a legal team that is competent, responsive, and genuinely cares about their clients, I would recommend Mr. Geller and Lauryn without hesitation!

So I sent Sam a message through Yelp VERY late at night and he responded right away. I got the…read moreimpression he is awesome at what he does and goes the extra mile even when you're not actually paying him yet. He doesn't normally take cases in my county, so he recommended two great lawyers. I have to say, Tom Maas who he recommended and I went to see the next day was everything that Sam promised. Sam even followed up with me early in the morning and asked that I let him know how it goes. Did I mention, if it didn't work out, Sam was willing to make an exception and take our case. Don't hesitate going with Sam, he makes things happen, extremely trustworthy and upfront, super responsive, and makes sure you're taken care of.

In 2018 I got a DUI involving another car, I was charged with a felony DUI. I felt like the world…read morewas going to end, I was 24 (at the time of the accident), my BA was over 1.8, I was driving over 80mph, and I hit another car causing bruising on the passenger's leg. I was charged with major bodily harm, this was the lowest moment of my life. Mrs. Feigelson took my case, she dove into my history of alcoholism after leaving Afghanistan. She got to know me and strategized a legal defense that connected my service-related PTSD to the legal trouble I found myself in. Mrs. Feigelson fought for me to be transferred into Veterans Court. Her knowledge of the court system and thorough understanding of programs that are uniquely tailored to her clients let me have another chance at life. Without her help, I would have gotten that felony, I would have lost my future. She stood by me for over 2 years making court appearances on my behalf. She is more than a lawyer, she's someone who you can trust will do everything in her power to get you the best outcome. I can not describe the amount of esteem and admiration I have for her. I graduated from Veterans court; my entire DUI was taken off my criminal record and dismissed. Life will happen, and sometimes you end up somewhere you don't want to be. If you have a criminal case, especially a DUI Mrs. Feigelson is the lawyer you need. If I ever have any issues in the future she is the only lawyer I would consider hiring 10/10.

I honestly cannot thank Rebecca enough. My husband had an old case from 2015 that we both thought…read morewas resolved. We found out recently that it was not when we tried to hire an expungement lawyer. The expungement lawyer told us he couldn't help because the case was on going. I googled lawyers who would able to help for his specific situation and came across Rebecca. She called me back within minutes. Before I even gave her a red cent she was already looking into the case and giving me advice on what she could do if I hired her. The second I sent her payment she was making phone calls. Within 24hrs she spoke to the clerk, probation officer, district attorney, the clerk again, the judge, and got the case dismissed. ALL WITHIN 24 HOURS. Looks like my first born child's name will be Rebecca. I can't thank her enough, I am eternally grateful.

If you're looking for a lawyer who is not only highly skilled but also compassionate, this is absolutely the person you want by your side.

From the first consultation, he was honest, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. He never sugarcoated anything, but he also never let me loose hope. He explained the legal process in a way I could actually understand and made sure I knew all my options. Most importantly, he got results. I walked away with a much better outcome than I ever expected. I truly felt like he had my back from day one. If you're in trouble and need someone who's sharp, experienced, and genuinely cares, stop looking. This is the attorney you want in your corner. I can say without a doubt he saved me, legally, financially, and emotionally.

Was in dire need of a lawyer for my case so I contacted the law offices of Jonah Chew. Without…read moregoing into too much detail, I can say that Jonah displayed a level of unparalleled professionalism throughout this long, tiring ordeal. Mr Chew was non-judgmental but also personable and made me feel like I could reach out to him whatever time of day. Despite his heavy caseload he made sure to take the time to make sure whatever needs or questions I had at the time were addressed and always feeling re-assured and in good hands. His communication, follow-ups, and depth of knowledge was simply amazing. Mr Chew is also extremely experienced with the court system and was able to leverage his rapport with the prosecutors, DAs, and judges to ensure I was getting the best outcome. It is unclear whether a lawyer without prior experience working in these specific court systems could've yielded a better outcome. I think the case could've easily gone south had I not gone through this ordeal with Mr Chew. I honestly had not expected this level of service given the pricing. Mr Chew went above and beyond his call of duty. I am extremely releived to have done the research when searching for representation. It does make a difference.

I was on disability, with no income and limited resources, and hesitant to pay a consultation fee. But after speaking directly with Givelle, her clarity, compassion, and genuine care made me feel safe enough to invest in myself--despite how vulnerable I felt. She asked if I wanted to fight the DMV hearing to keep my license, explaining the cost and the low odds. I said yes--because I knew I was telling the truth and had advocated for myself at the time of the accident, even though I was terrified of the police. Her team, Manjula and Shawn, uncovered key evidence that validated my experience. Lamano Law Office won the DMV hearing. When it came time for court, Manjula and Justine were responsive, thorough, and deeply invested. They treated me like a person, not a case file--explaining every option, answering every question, and honoring my circumstances with care. Now that my case has come to a close, I can say the outcome surpassed anything I expected, especially after all the research I did and stories I'd heard from others. Manjula was a driving force in bringing it to that powerful close! Her dedication, clarity, and care made me feel supported every step of the way. I keep telling my friends and family: hiring Lamano Law Office was the best decision I made for myself. Even though I didn't have extra money to hire an attorney, I found a way and they worked with me every step of the way. If you're someone who's on the fence about seeking legal support, I hope my experience offers the reassurance you've been looking for. Lamano Law Office will always have my support, and I wish them continued success. To Givelle and the entire Lamano Law Office team--thank you from the bottom of my heart. Your belief in me, your fierce advocacy, and your unwavering care changed the course of my life. I'll never forget it.

Simply put, Marcia is an incredible attorney and overall person to have in your corner fighting for…read moreyour needs. I've been involved in an ongoing legal battle involving multiple entities over the last year and a half and Marcia has helped me every step of the way. She is incredibly knowledgeable and thorough in her practice. She always takes the time to listen to you as well as to go over and understand the most imperative or most minute details of your situation in order to help you in the best way possible. She handles uncomfortable information/discussions with care and sensitivity at all times. In addition to that, I never once had any difficulty getting into contact with her when needed. Marcia provided me with a great deal of guidance about the processes associated with the criminal law system, what I could expect, what all of my options were, how we would approach each situation etc. and ultimately this led to the best possible outcome for me. I felt 100% believed and supported throughout my entire legal ordeal which helped me feel more at ease during an incredibly challenging time in my life. My specific case ended up requiring 2 additional law professionals in addition to Marcia's area of criminal law. Marcia went above and beyond to find these other professionals for me. Saving me an incredible amount of time, money, stress and anxiety. She took time to have personal conversations with them about my case and my specific needs and then provided me with her detailed thoughts and opinions on each individual. This allowed me to make the most informed decision possible and ensured my other representation was also of high quality. When I secured 2 other lawyers in different law areas for this case, Marcia then collaborated with those professionals and fiercely advocated for my needs, ensuring that each professional had my best interests in mind and that neither of these professionals would jeopardize the outcome of my criminal case. When the criminal law portion of my case ended, Marcia continued to check in with me frequently to track the progress in each of the other areas of this case. She continued to provide me with personal advice as well as comments/questions that she would ask the other attorneys in these other areas to ensure I was continuing to get the best representation possible. Overall Marcia is an outstanding attorney and overall person to have on your team, representing your needs. She goes above and beyond to help you and is always transparent. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for legal counsel.

I did a free consultation with Mike last November for a minor legal matter. He was in court when I reached out but his secretary took my information down and arranged a phone call quickly. From the moment I spoke with him, I knew he was the kind of lawyer I wanted to hire. He laughed after I told him my minor legal matter and assured me not to worry. He advised that a legal representation was not needed for my particular situation. He was so honest, personable, and cool that I felt relieved immediately after talking to him. His price was also the most fair and reasonable among the three attorneys I consulted with. No wonder another reviewer said Mike should be nicknamed "Magic Mike". I can totally see why. If you are looking for a no BS lawyer who can fight and defend you, Mike is the guy!
